Nondisp unsp condyle fx low end r femr, 7thD

This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a fracture of an unspecified condyle at the lower end of their right femur. The fracture was initially nondisplaced and is currently healing routinely without complications, and the skin over the fracture site remains intact.

This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed closed, nondisplaced right distal femoral condyle fracture that is progressing as expected. It would be used for routine follow-up appointments, cast changes, or physical therapy sessions during the healing phase.

• Ensure documentation specifies "subsequent encounter" and "routine healing" for a closed fracture.
• Verify the laterality (right femur) and the nondisplaced nature of the fracture.
• Do not use for initial encounters or for fractures with delayed healing, nonunion, or malunion.
